Kingdom Builders is our way of bringing the good news of the gospel to all nations through a faithful community passionate about generosity.

Our Unified Kingdom Builders Campus Giving Model

The faithful giving from every Encounter Life Network campus combines to support Global Missions and Future Christian Leaders initiatives. By combining our resources in these areas, we can accomplish more together than any one campus could accomplish alone.

At the same time, a portion of Kingdom Builders giving remains at each campus to fund Local Outreach and Campus Improvements. No campus’s allocated local campus-improvement funds are used to pay for improvements at another campus. This allows every campus to respond to the unique needs of its community, reach people locally, and invest in creating environments that help people connect to Christ, Community, and Calling.

Campus Improvements

FINISHING WHAT WE STARTED. MAKING ROOM FOR WHAT’S NEXT.
This year, our campus improvement focus is centered on the next generation. We’re completing the remaining pieces of our Preschool + Kids Lobby renovation while taking the first steps toward transforming our Middle School environments—creating intentional spaces where students can connect, build relationships, and grow in their faith.
PRESCHOOL KIDS & LOBBY | FINISH THE REMODEL
Our children are our future, and we want to create environments designed to help them know and experience Jesus from an early age. Completing our Preschool + Kids expansion will provide safe, secure, age-appropriate spaces designed to engage children’s imagination, deepen their connection to the Gospel, and allow us to disciple up to 350 children each service. Finishing this project also makes room for what’s next.

MIDDLE SCHOOL REMODEL

Middle school is a pivotal season when students are discovering who they are, where they belong, and what they believe. We want to create a space designed specifically for them—a place to build friendships, have fun, encounter Jesus, and take ownership of their faith. This remodel will include a dedicated auditorium for worship and services, along with a café, gaming, and hangout spaces built for connection and community.

FAQ

What is Kingdom Builders?
Kingdom Builders is our way of bringing the good news of the gospel to all nations through a faithful community passionate about generosity. From kids to adults, the profile of a kingdom builder is the same. This community, open to all, is built of individuals and families that prayerfully commit to give over and above their tithes to global missions, local church expansion, and future Christian leaders.
Why Kingdom Builders?
This is where  Kingdom Builders provides the means to support missionaries around the world, community projects, church expansion and improvement projects, church planting, and missionary projects all throughout the year. Some have referred to Kingdom Builders as a "missions mutual fund" with the idea that each missionary, ministry, and project was part of God's global, kingdom mission and each dollar was an investment with an eternal return and reward. The heart of Kingdom Builders is people. We give, go, pray and send "so all can hear" the Gospel of the Kingdom. Kingdom Builders will incorporate what was formerly known as Missions Faith Promises, The Father's House Fund, along with any special offerings we typically have taken (Easter, Christmas, BGMC, missions project, etc.) While we may still do these special offerings, it will be for the projects we have already committed to through Kingdom Builders and all funds will go to meeting the entire goal. This allows us to set the goal at the beginning of each year and allows individuals and families to budget and believe in faith to give throughout the year.the description goes.
Where will the money from Kingdom Builders go?
Kingdom Builders is all about people, not projects. Although we support projects, it is “SO ALL MAY HEAR.” At the beginning of each fiscal year, our leadership team prayerfully considers each person and project we will support. Our strategic priorities will be our filter for what we commit to as a church. Each year we will present our vision and goal for the year with the people and projects we feel God is leading us to support. We have three priorities for Kingdom Builders:
 
  • Global Kingdom Builders expresses our love for God’s world with a heart to support missionaries who are making a difference and taking the Gospel to the ends of the Earth and ministry projects that plant churches, build schools, raise up leaders, and provide hope to the hurting.

  • Local Kingdom Builders expresses our love for our local church and community.  We are committed to funding the growth of the church locally through expanding our own campus, planting life-giving, Spirit-filled churches in our communities, and ministering to the hurting in our own backyards. We will make space for those not yet here so they can personally know our loving, Heavenly Father. 

  • Future Christian Leader Kingdom Builders expresses our love for the next generation of Christ-followers and Church leaders. By partnering with ministries that care for the physical and spiritual needs of the next generation, our investment in the future is focused on raising up leaders to foster a love for God, the Bible, and the lost and inspire them to change the world. From infants to young professionals, we believe that investing in our future leaders is a strong priority.
What if I have designated money to a specific missionary in the past?
While you cannot designate your funds to specific ministry campaigns, the Kingdom Builders “bucket” will be allocated to various projects as they come in. Designated giving inside of Kingdom Builders will be discouraged for bookkeeping reasons. Exceptions will be made when an individual funds an entire project.
What about my Missionary Faith Promise giving?
Through Kingdom Builders, we will still support our missionaries monthly. Our budget is based on our previous monthly commitments (including designated funds) and, in fact, through Kingdom Builders, we hope to increase our missionary financial support.
When will each project be funded?
 Other than our committed monthly missionary support, most projects and initiatives will be funded by the end of the calendar year (December 31st). Based on the total given for that year, we will determine what each project will receive. We believe that if everyone does their part by faith and obedience, we will not have to choose which project is funded or reduce our commitment.
